Charging the hybrid battery
In addition to the fuel tank, as in a conventional
car, the car is equipped with a rechargeable bat-
tery - a so-called hybrid battery of the lithium-ion
type.
The hybrid battery is charged using a charging
cable with control unit which is located in a stor-
age compartment in the cargo area.
Volvo recommends a charging cable in
accordance with IEC 62196 and IEC 61851
which supports temperature monitoring.
The time it takes for the hybrid battery to be
charged is dependent on the charging current
that is used.
The capacity of the hybrid battery decreases
slightly with age and use, which may result in
increased use of the petrol engine and
thereby slightly increased fuel consumption.
WARNING
Replacing the hybrid battery must only be per-
formed by a workshop - an authorised Volvo
workshop is recommended.
Charging cable handle and charging input socket.
Charging status is indicated in three ways:
•
Different indicators on the charging cable's
control unit.
•
Indicator lamp in the car's charging input
socket.
•
Illustration and text in the driver display.
While the hybrid battery is being charged, charg-
ing is also in progress for the car's starter battery.
If the hybrid battery's temperature is below
-10
º
C (14
º
F) or above 40
º
C (104
º
F) then it
may mean that some of the car's functions are
changed or unavailable because the capacity of
the hybrid batteries is reduced outside this tem-
perature range.
Electric operation is not possible if the tempera-
ture of the battery is too low or too high. If drive
mode PURE is then selected, the combustion
engine starts.
Charging with fixed control unit in
accordance with mode 3
1
In certain markets the control unit is installed
within a charging station connected to the mains
power circuit. In which case, the charging cable
has no control unit of its own. Instead, it has a
special connector to be used to connect the
charging cable to the charging station. Follow the
instructions at the charging station.
